December 3, 2012

On December 12, 2012 (12.12.12) the Westvleteren XII “Brick” (gift packs) will be available for sale in the US for the first time. Below is a list of retail locations where these Bricks will be for sale. Each Brick contains six 33cl bottles of Westvleteren 12º beer and two special tasting glasses. This is a special one-time only release. It might sell out right away on December 12th. No advance reservations are accepted via this website. This list is only to help make the search easier for those that wish to purchase a Westvleteren XII Brick. Suggested Retail Price is $85.00 per Brick.

It wasn’t an oversight. Obviously, the quantities of this beer are very limited and it couldn’t have gotten to everybody who wanted it, but some states are especially difficult for small breweries. The licensing fees and registration process in order to sell this one beer from the brewery in Texas make it impossible to do. Those rules keep a lot of beers out of your fine state.

We do have some seriously arcane rules here, but there are people working to change that, albeit too late for this event. I have requests out to friends in IL and CA to find me a bottle or two. I’m shipping them each some homebrew this month anyway, so it only seems fair..

Hi, can anybody clarify the locations in Alabama? Specifically, the listing for “Piggly Wiggly, Homeland” – There doesn’t seem to be a Homeland, AL (Homeland is a OK/KS food store chain). And there are a good number of Piggly Wigglys across AL. I’m considering starting calling their corporate office but thought I’d ask prior!
Thanks.

I hate to burst your bubble viiilx but Portland is known for there microbrews. As a matter of fact Portland is known as americas microbrew capital more then 24 breweries in the city surroundings alone. We love our beer.

Merp! This is why I hate being a beer lover livin’ in Texas =\ It’s outrageously difficult for small breweries to sell here, not unless they want to be committed to selling their beer in Texas for the next 10 years in addition to an entire list of other equally ridiculous requirements.

Does this beer have flavors that have been unleashed from deep inside the barrel wood? Is it for choir boys? Has anyone else seen this commercial so many times that they will never drink Jim Beam again in their life?

Huge letdown for this San Antonian. My ex-spouse accidentally broke a gift pack from the monastery and I was hoping to replace it, guess not. I wish they would do this once a year at least just to let some of us who appreciate it have a chance to savor this wonderful creation.
